Patrik Ervell Fall/​Winter 2012 | New York Fashion Week

Min­i­mal Unrest–Dis­rupt­ing the lines of Patrik Ervell’s trade­mark suit­ing, dis­rup­tion set in with the label’s hero strik­ing a chord for rebel­lion. Weav­ing in gar­ments that sur­pris­ingly gave the col­lec­tion an urban edge, Ervell’s man marched on as quilted out­er­wear took up the part of pro­tec­tive gear and tech­ni­cal fab­rics caved into the mod­ern age. Echo­ing mil­i­tant sen­ti­ments with pieces sway­ing from struc­tured and fit­ted to loose, a range that included sharp shirt­ing, a grounded series of trousers and an evolv­ing array of jack­ets stole the show, set­ting the tone for a seri­ous fall with an eye for strong style.
